Sex : Location, Location, Location

When it comes to changing things up in you and your partner’s sex life, then you really need to go the way of the home shopper and think “location, location, location”. You know how important location is when you are buying a home. Shoot, it can determine how much you pay for the home, how much it will resell for, and is probably the single largest determining factor of the intrinsic value of that home. There’s a reason. Location means a lot to people, whether they are attending a country club, a restaurant, or  a workout facility. Heck, where your job is located is a huge deal too.

That’s because location makes things a lot different in your perspectives.  That goes for sexual intimacy as well.  Did you ever slip into that same bed, or that same place where you and your main squeeze seem to ALWAYS do the nasty, and just envision the same old romping as you’ve had every other time?  That’s because, like positions, the actual physical location of where you’re having intercourse make all the difference in the excitement and meaningfulness factor of your enjoyment of sex as well.

I recently had this epiphany, although it wasn’t really an epiphany since I knew for me that location made all the difference when it came to the kink and excitement factor of sexual interludes in the past. Why should it be any different today? The thing is, with these sorts of nuances and rules to good, fun sex, we tend to fall into ruts and habits and simply forget about the more exciting ways to get it on.

My husband and I recently were going to our usual location to have sex, and I had already visualized what our whole sexual experience was going to be like at that moment. Why? Because we’ve had sex in that same exact spot hundreds of times, and it was hard not to pigeonhole it into that same rerun in my mind.

I immediately turned around to him and said, hey, we need to go somewhere else, I realized how we were getting in a rut of doing it in the same place almost every time for quite a few months.  And guess what?  The sex was much less predictable and much more sexy, fun and exciting!  Talk about such a seemingly minor thing have major consequences on both of our enjoyment of sexual intimacy, that’s an example if I ever saw one.

So, with your lover, make sure you make it a point to change up locations and make it hot and sexy. Heck, it’s your house or your apartment to do as you please – get wild and crazy and do it on the kitchen or bathroom counter – the bathroom counter is especially naughty feeling because you have mirrors right in front of you, adding to that all important kink factor.

If You Take Medication, Doe it Affect Your Semen?

I suppose that if you think about taking a medication, since it comes out sometimes in your other bodily secretions like your urine, your fecal matter and even sometimes your sweat, and since those are the three main ways in which your body detoxifies itself on a daily basis, and rids itself of unnecessary waste, it might make sense that something would actually create a presence in your semen, particularly if it is a strong medication.

But is there any real truth to that assumption, or does it only come out of the body in other ways?  Well, yes, apparently many drugs are secreted via the male semen that comes out when a man ejaculates.  However, the concentration is usually so low that it does not affect the person’s sexual partner in any way. If you are taking a drug that you are concerned could potentially affect your sexual partner because you think that the dosage is very high, then this may be something you want to make your partner aware of in case they have any allergies to it or may suffer adverse effects, or if you’re concerned, you could even wear a condom for a little while.

However, most likely the trace amounts will be so minimal that come out in your ejaculate, that usually the exposure rate will be so low that it will be undetected in the partner, so there is usually no reason to worry, if you’re worried about a particular medication or interactions for your partner, then you should contact your doctor to ask them if it’s ok.  That’s always the plan if you’re uncertain, as of course there are always bizarre, one off cases for just about anything !

Making Anal Sex Easier for Women

Although some still consider the naughty and sexually erotic ritual of anal sex to be somewhat of a taboo and even a fetish, there are many women who say that although they initially found anal sex uncomfortable, they now enjoy it.  However, as with anything else, it should probably be kept to a minimum since the anus is really not meant for large objects to be shoved in, and of course there could be some irritation involved if it’s not done the right way, or if it’s overdone.  That’s something to keep in mind maybe if you’ve just started dabbling in this kinky form of sexual enjoyment.

It may not be for everybody, but there are certainly people that say they enjoy engaging in it every once in a while, for a change of pace.  I do think there’s something forbidden about it, as most men consider it to be a kinky variation of traditional sex, and truth be told, most men are turned on by the occasional prospect of their partner being “into” anal sexual intercourse.  Maybe some may not own up to it, but trust me, there is something about it that has an allure to men.

Here are some tips to making anal sex more comfortable for women that will definitely help with first, second and third experiences to relax the muscles and prevent any sort of injury and minimize discomfort.  First, it is vital that you breathe slowly.  If you don’t inhale and exhale in long, controlled bursts, then your muscles are more likely to contract and the feeling of anal sex is more likely to be uncomfortable since the muscles are clenched and the friction becomes more noticeable.  Start very slow.  Do not allow your partners penis to go much furth than an inch in at first.  Once you feel it is in, then breathe slowly, and you will feel it open up more and begin to take more of the penis in.

Make sure you are in a comfortable position where you are not too clenched up and your muscles can relax as much as possible.  If need be, use a gentle lubricant such as KY jelly or some other form of lubricant.  There is a gel called Anal Ease, which I believe also contains a numbing agent to make the penetration easier and more comfortable, but I’ve never had any experience with it.  All in all, you cannot go all the way the first time, or even the second time, this has to be a slow, building process to get you to where you can actually enjoy it without the discomfort and possible injury that comes along with it.

Size Genetics Announces a Generous Discount

The very popular penis enlargement system Size Genetics has just announced a very generous discount, so you may want to grab up this system on the cheap while it lasts.  The folks there just told me about it, they insituted it because they know the economy’s in the toilet.  See how to get the discount on Size Genetics Review. 

It’s times like these when consumers have a very opportunistic buying window because companies are more likely to offer their products at steep discounts to attract buyers who are exposed to the ever-worsening economic news every day.   Take advantage, that’s what I say!  you may not see buying opportunities like this in virtually every sector again in your lifetime. 

What To Do with a Chafed Penis

Penile chafing is actually a fairly common problem.  It can happen if a guy is having sex frequently, or even from doing – ehem, his own pleasure seeking a bit too often, or it can just happen like it happens to skin anywhere else on the body, from irritation or sensitivity. 

It can also happen from various sexual lubricants that are used, for example I believe one of the ones that leads to this if it is overused, especially in guys with sensitive penis skin, is the warming sexual liquids, like KY warming and other similar ones that either have cinnamon and other skin irritants in them, or contain ingredients that warm when they are rubbed or touched. 

Those are typicallly used as female sexual enhancement rubs, but they often come in contact with the penis upon penetration and the friction combined with the heating can irritate some guy’s skin.  That’s just my opinion though, there’s really no published research on that or anything (and why would there be). 

What you need to do if you’ve rubbed the skin raw on the penis is, first of all, take a breather from sexual activity until the chafed spot is healed.  This can be tough, but believe me, it can be painful if it starts getting rubbed so much that it gets raw and starts to bleed or otherwise ooze other liquid out of it.  When it gets to that stage, it requires an even longer healing process, so you want to try to avoid that stage all together if possible. 

Now, as far as what you can do, you will need to take care of the chafing on your penis by putting some sort of soothing ointment on it, you can even use one with antibiotics in it like Neosporin or other similar anitbiotic ointments to prevent it getting infected.  There are some homeopathic ointments that may also be used, but it’s difficul to say what may irritate some guys more and what may work as an ample soother.  Aloe may work on some guys but may irritate others. 

My preference is to just stick to a light layer of Neosporin, so that it keeps the wound moist and doesn’t allow it to just peel and get raw again. Also the anitbiotic action will prevent any sort of infection which is an added benefit, and may even help speed the healing process.

Men and Women to Get Different Exercise Regimens?

This was an interesting article I read about how fitness experts are tending more toward totally different types of workouts for men and women, which vary based on the person’s sex, rather than totally relying on the typical workout factors like current weight, fitness level, and muscle mass at time of beginning a regimen, they will base the type of workout, length of sets and so forth, on a person’s sex.

This isn’t that far off from how it is now though.  Right now, men usually do vary the way they workout from women in the amount of weight they use in lifting and leg presses or other types of bench presses, and the key different that many men practice that is not usual for women is that they work on body parts.  So for example men will work on arms and lats one day and then the next they may work on their abs and quadriceps, while women can tend to bunch all their workout into one.

Women usually will combine cardio exercise with muscle fitness for all of their workouts, so they might start off with a half hour or so of cardio, and then move onto their legs doing presses or squats, then maybe work out their abs for a bit, and then their arms.  Men chop theirs up more, working and focusing on one body part at a time, because supposedly men’s muscles respond a little differently to muscle resistance. 

Also, levels of testosterone have a lot to do with the difference between men’s and women’s workouts, because testosterone allows men to lift a lot more weight at a time and bear that weight more evenly and effectively than a woman, so testosterone definitely plays a big part too in the differences between the sexe’s workouts. 

Men Need to Up Their Veggies

Well, I know that it’s hard for men to eat their veggies usually, well, unless you were raised on them, as I was and my dad was.  We were raised to like fresh garden vegetables and also some fruits – although the fruits were limited, so it was no big deal to us to eat a healthy helping of veggies with every meal around spring and summer time when the garden would yield it’s freshest and ripest varieties. 

However, and this may be the key to why men have higher occurrences of certain health problems than women, men are not as likely to reach for those fruits or veggies when they’re eating.  In fact, and even worse, is that men are more likely to reach for the meats than women are, and meat is the most system clogging thing you can eat.  It’s very hard to digest, and many researchers think that high meat diets, and quite often diets high in red meat, are responsible for digestive disorders and certain types of cancers.

Another interesting fact is that men, according to this latest survey, are more likely to consume undercooked meats and also runnier eggs than women, and these both account for higher contamination rates since organisms can live in meats that are undercooked that could make people sick.  Women are more likely to eat yogurt also, and interestingly enough yogurt is one of those foods, like fruits and veggies, that are associated with improved health and stable weight or weight loss.

Men were also much more likely to eat asparagus than women, which is interesting because I know a lot of both men and women who like this expensive little vegetable.  It also has that unfortunate distinction of making your urine stinky, akin to something you’d smell in a sewer, so maybe that’s why women may have a slight subconscious aversion to the vegetable?  Hey at least us guys are getting some nutrients in our diet – asparagus!  Seriously guys, you need to eat your veggies. 

They will decrease your risk of colon cancer, many other types of digestive related cancers, and also prostate cancer since they have so many beneficial compounds in them that can help fight cancer and stop it from forming in the first place.  Fruits do as well because they are abundant in antioxidants. 

Busting Pleasure-Reducing Holiday Stress

Holiday stress leads to lots of things.  It leads to increased anxiety and uncertainty because of the weighing idea that we need all kinds of money to pay for gifts for our loved ones, more anxiety over seeing family, and the food that we eat also leads to increased stress and anxiety, because it lends itself to the stress and anxiety roller coaster by increasing our insulin levels and resulting in unbalanced blood sugar, which increases the stress hormone called cortisol.

What does all this holiday stress spell out for your sex life?  Well it means that you probably don’t want to have sex or sexual contact because you are stressed to the max for one, and second, it leads to decreased time for you and your sexual partner to actually do the deed since you are exhausted due to holiday obligations and running all over creations to find the perfect gifts for family and friends.  Add to that the anxiety of attending work parties, and other holiday parties, and you’ve got a full sexual meltdown during the holidays.

So, what can you do?  Well, make sure you don’t totally neglect the gym or wherever else it is that you get the majority of your physical activity in.  If you can’t exercise during these stressful times, it just makes the anxiety and stress increase two and three fold.  Not working out the frustration and tension just lets it build up more, and faster, so make sure you’re literally “working out” the stress on a daily basis somehow, or at least every other day. 

The exercise will increase your energy levels, and enable you to cope with the stress more readilly and efficiently.  This results in an improved sexual desire as well as better sexual experiences, which, you guessed it, results in further stress reduction because sexual release does constitute itself as a stress reducer in itself.  Furthermore, do not neglect your nutrition. 

Make sure you are taking your men’s multivitamin still, since you may be depriving your body of the necessary nutrients to keep a man healthy during the holiday with all the junk food around, and also make sure you are getting adequate antioxidants with the different men’s health supplements that are out there with high antioxidant value, which combat the destructive effects of stress and anxiety at the cellular level. 

Men Don’t Like Having Too Much Body Hair, Either!

Most people think men are mostly concerned about male hair loss, but they are also concerned about something else when it comes to hair – body hair, to be specific.  Men do not like being overly hairy, contrary to some’s beliefs.  Men, just as much as women, like to de-hair their bodies when they become over comparative to a bear or other nasty hairy creature, and many of them either shave the hair off or use hair removers to get the job done. 

The quest for stubble free legs begins for girls about age 12 or 13 and persists for a lifetime. For women in menopause or, at any phase of life, there’s nothing worse cosmetically than those unwanted hairs that sprout up on your chin or upper lip.  There’s a number of different methods to remedy the problem of unwanted hair.

There’s the method of waxing the area with the unwanted hairs.  Essentially, you heat wax until it’s warm and melted and apply it to the problem area. After the wax has cooled and hardened, you pull it off and the unwanted hairs come off with the wax. Veet features waxing products that pull the hair out from the root which means the hair will not grow back for up to 4 weeks.
Veet has a full line of depilatory products besides their waxing products.  Veet produces creams, mousses and lotions that dissolve the proteins that make up the hair shaft.  Nair is another company that features depilatory items for smoother, stubble free legs.  They have a hair removal cream or a hair remover spray for use on your legs.

 There’s a depilatory that is herbal called Kalo.  Kalo is applied three times daily, two days consecutively, for hair removal.  Kalo slows hair growth until it is finer and weaker and eventually gone completely.  Kalo states it is natural, herbal and a painless method of hair removal. 

Electrolysis is a method of hair removal that uses a medical device called epilators that destroy the growth center of the hair via short wave radio frequency.  Electrolysis requires a number of sessions and the speed of the results vary from person to person.  If you have unwanted body or facial hair, there’s many choices to deal with it besides just shaving or tweezing.

Feel Fat? How This Stunts Your Sex Life

Do you know how many people say that they just don’t feel “in the mood” because they feel fat or bloated?  And no, I’m not just talking about the female sex, but also the male sex.  Men, how many times have you had a huge meal, and felt all big and bloated, and almost on the verge of sick, and this has dampened your desire to have sexual intercourse? 

Of course, for men, it’s probably not as profound as for women, since women are notoriously more self conscious about their bodies during sex and also are more prone to connecting sexual emotions with how they feel, but it does happen for us men too sometimes, right?

Well, maybe I’m speaking too soon, or from too personal of a perspective, but I know that feeling like I ate too much or just in general, feeling out of shape and “fat” really does dampen my whole sexual feeling, that I’m a sexual being who is attractive and capable of having great sex.  Sound crazy?  Well, maybe not. 

Surveys have found that men are increasingly body-aware when it comes to sex and with the new metrosexual trend and the acceptability of a guy who cares about his looks and is self conscious about his looks, it seems this has been a double edge sword for dudes, making them more self conscious about these things. 

Not only that, when you eat too much, it actually can have a chemical reaction which dampens sexual response and also dampens the actual mood, so there really is something to it!
